Presenting a film part 3: giving opinions

Critic #1: I think this film is very moving. The topic seems sad, as it deals with cancer and death. But in fact, the film is mostly about fulfilling one’s dreams. It also shows the importance of friends and family. My favorite scene is when Edward Cole meets his grand daughter. However, I think it is not true to life, because in real life, a bilionnaire would never share his hospital room with someone.

Critic #2: I did not enjoy this film. I think the story is not realistic. The beginning was quite boring, it takes a lot of time before they finally start their bucket list. I did not like the scenes that take place at the hospital. Moreover, I prefer funnier films.

NOTION DE POSSESSION = LE GENITIF

A recopier ou imprimer et coller dans le cahier.

Pour exprimer une relation de possession, on utilise le génitif.

Le possesseur est placé le premier, il est suivi de ’S et le deuxième nom perd son article.
Ex: Prince William’s mother = la mère du prince William

Possesseur pluriel

Le nom est simplement suivi d’une apostrophe après le S du pluriel.
Ex: the babiesfather = le père des bébés

Cas particulier : Charles’ first son = le premier fils de Charles

Le génitif ne s’emploie généralement qu’avec les noms d’êtres vivants, de groupes, d’organismes, d’institutions, de pays…
Ex : Britain’s government = le gouvernement britannique

Pour des possesseurs « objets » la possession se marque par of
Ex : the door of the garage = la porte du garage


Time to pratice: translate into English

a) La femme du Prince William
b) Les chaussures du garçon
c) La fenêtre de la salle de classe
d) La fille de Catherine est Charlotte
